Wanna know what’s hot this summer? (Besides the Florida sun!) SmartDrape!

SmartDrape® by Norman® is turning heads and transforming coastal homes—combining sleek style with smart functionality. Imagine elegant drapes that move with a whisper and offer just the right amount of light, privacy, and tech-savvy convenience. 

What is SmartDrape™?

SmartDrape™ from Norman combines the elegance of soft-fold drapery with the functionality of vertical blinds. Its unique design uses individual fabric vanes suspended within a sheer, allowing users to gently twist between sheer and solid modes and walk through while in use.

Key Benefits

1. Elegant & Functional

• Soft like traditional curtains but engineered for versatility with individual vanes that control privacy and light.

• Vanes float in sheer fabric, creating a cinematic "floating effect" and moving light ambiance.

2. Walk‑Through Access

• Even when closed, you can walk through the fabric—the vanes part easily, ideal for patio doors and wide spaces.

3. Child & Pet Safe

• Cordless operation makes SmartDrape™ certified “Best for Kids,” significantly reducing strangulation hazards in homes with children or pets.

4. Custom Controls

• Manual Operation: Adjust using a wand—twist to switch opacity, slide to open/close vanes.

• Motorized Control: Via intuitive remote or the ShadeAuto™ app. Works with voice control and smart home systems like Alexa, Google Assistant, and Apple HomeKit.

5. Wide Coverage

• Single units cover up to 12 feet (approx. 3.7 m); use two linked units to expand to ~24 ft for large windows or doors 

6. Low Maintenance & Longevity

• Fabric vanes are removable and machine-washable. Dirty or worn vanes can be replaced individually without changing the whole system.

7. Energy Efficiency & Privacy

• Vanes provide insulation—filtering heat in summer, retaining warmth in cooler months—while also allowing versatile light control and glare reduction.

• Motorization enables automation—schedule coverings based on time, sunlight, or occupancy for optimized energy use and security.
